I have been looking for an interior designer for a while because I recently renovated my living and…read moredining room. Furnishing it has been a challenge since the Mrs. and I have different taste. Basically, I needed a professional mediator. I found Ron Nathan Interior Design on Houzz. He had great reviews and his portfolio and photo gallery looked beautiful. Our first meeting with Ron was great. He toured our place, took photos and wrote some notes. Our next meeting was at his design studio. He presented us with the furniture layout and gave us his suggestions on what furniture and fabrics would go together. From start to finish our place came together within four months since furniture and other items were custom made. Working with Ron was such a pleasure. He is professional, has excellent customer service and really wanted us to be happy (if we weren't sure about something he wasn't pushy and if we weren't happy he would do everything he could to make things right)! If you want a great interior designer contact Ron Interior Designs.

We had our entire house repainted First he sent Bruce who tried to give me inferior paint which I had to jump thru hoops to get corrected. They made a mess of everything Then he sent Stanley who I had used on my prior project with him. He was somewhat better however I'm still finding paint all over to this day It's on my radiators, in the shower, on my rug, on my tiles, my pipes - anywhere you can imagine there is paint and it really bothers me The tile person left loose tile in the kitchen which I had to call several times about and was eventually fixed. However, the tile by my dishwasher left my dishwasher unbalanced and I have a visible space between my counter and the tile which really does not look nice and I don 't know how to correct it I am really disappointed because Michael is a great guy with excellent ideas but this project left me very upset and still upsets me

Marissa assured our place would be different from everyone else's by reflecting my eclectic style of mid-century modern, contemporary, industrial and LA glam.

When we moved last year from our home in Ridgewood we were sad to leave behind all of the…read moreremodeling that made our place so beautiful, comfortable & functional ... and simply just "ours" with 30+ years of family memories. Moving into our new townhome we knew right away that we needed to renovate to make it "ours" but we were concerned that we would not be able to find someone that we could work with to accomplish turning someone else's home into ours. But whether by luck or by fate ... we connected with Sharon Sherman of Thyme & Place Design in Wyckoff for the renovation of our entire first floor, including a new kitchen and bathroom. Here are our top 5 reasons we consider ourselves so very fortunate to have found her. (1) She listens and gets to know you. There is no "one size fits all" in her approach to designing for her clients. Rather, she starts with discovering what her client's functional requirements are for the space while also beginning the process of understanding their aesthetic. We never felt that she was imposing her choices on us but rather guiding us to discover what would work functionally and aesthetically. (2) She possesses a beautiful aesthetic sense that allows her to create spaces that you will feel comfortable in, and as much as possible, that are "timeless". (3) She has partnered for many years with a local contractor, Veenstra & Sons, who she trusts to execute her designs and with whom she works extraordinarily well. (4) She stays involved with her projects ... not micromanaging but keeping an open line of communication with her contractor partner, being involved with all important decisions and visiting the site periodically to check in on the progress and that of the work of the sub-contractors (she knows almost all of them and they know the quality of work she expects from them!). We never felt that we, or our project, was ever neglected. (5) While all these reasons would be enough for you to want to engage Sharon for your next project ... there is one more ... and that is she is just fun to work with. Her excitement when she presents a new design, suggests a new type of kitchen appliance to consider or simply comes up with new idea is contagious. We love the new space that she has created with us and have begun the process of settling in and creating new memories with family and friends. It is a joy to cook in our new kitchen that is designed so thoughtfully. We look forward to a number of new projects with Sharon to complete our home, including a new master bath and living room fireplace.

As a bachelor without design sense it was one of the best investments I could have made. It saved me so much time and anxiety about which pieces to pick and every single person who has visited has been amazed by how nicely decorated my apartment is. The process is exactly as described by other reviewers - introductory call, questionnaire, in home visit, and follow up call a week or two later with a mood board and shopping list. Betsy was incredibly personable and easy to talk to. I was also impressed with how much her suggestions matched my style even though I didn't have the vocabulary to communicate it. Everything fit within my constraints and preferences and Betsy helped with follow up questions and suggestions as pieces came in and as I decided to swap out a few pieces.
